Let's assume that Artest committed no violent acts whatsoever against his wife recently. Let's assume that all he did was defensive in nature - holding her off, for example, and then walking away. And then let's assume that his wife was the offending party. If those assumptions were correct, would I want Artest on my team? No, I would not. Why? Because he's still involved in a household with domestic violence. Just the fact that he still lives with an abusive wife, involves him, his children, and the Kings with domestic violence. He has to take responsibility for living with her. By being in the same household with her he exposes his children to violence and the seediness of it to everybody connected with him, including Kings fans. As a Kings' fan, I'm not interested in waiting for the next incident to occur, whether it is his fault, his wife's, or both.
